Mayweather > Ortiz - Ortiz will get picked a part from the 4th round on... Look for TKO 8 via doctor/corner stoppage...
Pac > Marquez - This "new & improved" version of Pac is too much... TKO 4
Margarito > Cotto - Margarito will still go to the body. Cotto doesn't hold enough to slow Marg down. Marg SD..
Ward > Froch - Ward to technically sound. Ward via UD 119 - 109
Dawson > Hopkins - Hopkins has been seriously hurt in his last 2 fights. Dawson will finish him off. Dawson TKO 11.Comment

hahaha I know it sounds crazy now cause it's never been done. But Hopkins is aging believe it or not.. He got dropped like 2-3 times in his last two fights... He was EXTREMELY wobbled in the 12 round against Pascal.
If Pascal pressed the issue, it would've been over....
Keep in mind Dawson dropped Adamek like 3 times...
It's funny now, but you'll see come fight time.... I was the first to say it...Comment

Disagree big time, Dawson hasn't looked good in his last couple fights, that's true. That's just Dawson being lazy in training and lazy in the ring, he has other problems too, but I don't know what it is.
It's different now because he has Emmanuel Steward in his corner, and when Dawson is motivated he will kick some ass, just like he showed against Adamek and Tarver (1st fight).Last edited by Boxingwizard; 07-29-2011, 10:28 PM.Comment

Dawson will give Hopkins a boxing lesson. Hopkins in many of his fights the last six years have looked sloppy, his skills have declined, and I think Dawson will expose him for that.1.Judah over Khan because of footwork, power, and his new found defense.
2. MAYWEATHER over Ortiz because the only advantage I see that Ortiz has over Mayweather is power. Mayweather has demonstrated that taller fighters don't necessarily spell trouble. The southpaw stance might give Floyd some shaky moments early but Floyd either by UD or late stoppage.
3.Pacquiao over Marquez because although I thought Marquez more than held his own in the first 2 fights (possibly winning one or both.) But at this stage in each man's career, I believe it is Pacquiao who has improved the most. I don't believe JMM will be able to handle Manny's pressure this time.
4. Cotto beats slow Margarito without cement in his gloves. Cotto is a world champ these days and Margarito is a has-been.
5. Ward beats Froch because of smart boxing. I must take my hat off to the Englishman who has been demonstrating MUCH better defense lately than was the case earlier in his career. Froch has a big power edge but I don't see Froch being able to handle Andre on the inside and I think Andre has better footwork.
6. Hopkins beats Dawson because IMO, Dawson is "wet behind the ears" so to speak. Hopkins knows every trick in the book and I don't think Bad Chad sends him into retirement.Comment

I see you are Chad Dawson fan, with that being said, you are going with you heart instead of your head. If you watched his fights very close you will see that he has trouble with fighters with lateral movements and that are slick. Hopkins has that time 10. Hopkins has only lost (controversial at that) to fighters that throw a lot of punches and Dawson punch output is nowhere near the guys he has lost to.Comment

I am going with my head. There is a reason why Hopkins has been avoiding Dawson for three years, he wanted none of Dawson after Dawson beat Adamek,Tarver, and Johnson. I can understand why Hopkins wants to fight Dawson now, but Dawson will look like his old self again.I see you are Chad Dawson fan, with that being said, you are going with you heart instead of your head.

Hopkins has lateral movement, but he's not a mover like Pascal who's unorthodox way of boxing gave Dawson problems. He is also slower than Dawson.
You talk about Dawson's low punch output, but in his last fight he was throwing 50-60 punches a round. Hopkins has a work-rate of a grandpa compared to Dawson.Comment
